Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of soil testing technology, specifically an integrated soil respiration and community photosynthesis measurement system and method. Background Technology

[0002] Soil respiration refers to the process by which soil releases carbon dioxide, much like human respiration. The respiration of soil microorganisms, crops, crop roots, and soil animals all release significant amounts of carbon dioxide. Currently, soil respiration is the largest source of carbon dioxide release into the atmosphere from terrestrial ecosystems. Furthermore, even relatively small changes in the rate of soil respiration can significantly alter the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and the rate of soil carbon accumulation, thereby exacerbating or mitigating global warming. Therefore, providing quantitative measurement techniques and accurate data on soil respiration is urgently needed by the scientific community.

[0003] Existing portable soil respiration measurement systems generally employ a scheme where, during field testing of soil respiration, the device for collecting soil gases and the device for analyzing soil gases are separate. The disadvantage of this approach is:

[0004] The equipment for collecting and analyzing soil gases cannot be integrated into a single device, as it is inconvenient to carry and requires complicated and time-consuming installation procedures. Summary of the Invention

[0010] The automatic soil breathing chamber includes a breathing chamber, which is connected to the piston rod of the cylinder driver. The piston rod can drive the automatic soil breathing chamber to move up and down reciprocatingly.

[0011] The breathing chamber is equipped with an air intake hollow guide shaft, an air outlet hollow guide shaft, a pressure balance hollow guide shaft, and an air temperature measurement hollow guide shaft. All four hollow guide shafts are fixedly connected to the breathing chamber, and as the breathing chamber moves up and down, the four hollow guide shafts slide up and down within the cabin.

[0012] Preferably, the air chamber consists of upper and lower end caps, which are connected by a connecting shaft threaded together. The gap between the upper and lower end caps is greater than the distance from the end face of the vent to the upper cap. Two vents are provided on the air chamber. Airflow enters from the first vent and exits from the second vent after entering the air chamber. The connecting pipe is a flexible air guide that is snapped into the vent and the other end is snapped into the pressure-balancing hollow guide shaft. The pressure-balancing hollow guide shaft is threadedly connected to the breathing chamber, so that the pressure on the soil surface inside the breathing chamber is the same as the external pressure.

[0023] The S3 analyzes various gas detection data, including soil temperature, humidity, CO2 and H2O content in the gas, and air temperature parameters, through the various test units on the main control board, and displays them on a tablet computer via WiFi.

[0067] The S3 analyzes various gas detection data, including soil temperature, humidity, CO2 and H2O content in the gas, and air temperature parameters, through the various test units mounted on the main control board 20-1, and displays them on the tablet computer 200 via WiFi.

[0068] Example 3:

[0069] This embodiment provides a specific implementation method for measuring integrated soil respiration and community photosynthesis, such as... Figure 1-8 As shown, an integrated soil respiration and community photosynthesis measurement system includes: a device body 100 and a tablet computer 200. The device body 100 collects soil respiration gases, analyzes CO2 and H2O, and uploads the analysis results to the user's tablet computer 200 via internal WiFi wireless communication. The user can control the device body 100 by inputting commands through the tablet computer 200.

[0070] Furthermore, such as Figure 2As shown, the device body 100 includes: a main control board inside the cabin 20, equipped with CO2, H2O analysis, soil temperature, soil moisture, and air temperature measurement units, integrated with the automatic soil breathing chamber, and equipped with WiFi wireless communication, which allows for control and interaction with the tablet computer 200 via WiFi; the tablet computer 200 can directly input parameters and manually or automatically control the raising and lowering of the soil breathing chamber. During the raising and lowering process, the breathing chamber maintains the internal air pressure equal to the ambient air pressure through the dynamic pressure balancing device 10; the main control board inside the cabin 20 can control the operation of the main air pump, cylinder driver, two-position five-way solenoid valve, and micro gas circulation pump. The cylinder driver drives the automatic soil breathing chamber 30 to move up and down synchronously automatically and repeatedly without limit or with a limited number of times; optional LED light sources can be installed inside and outside the breathing chamber, including a built-in effective photosynthesis light source and an external positioning beacon indicator light source; the cabin panel is equipped with NO / OFF, CHG, soil temperature, and soil moisture measurement connectors; a portable handle 40 is provided on the top of the cabin; and the cabin has a built-in lithium battery 20-3.

[0071] It should be noted that the breathing chamber 30-1 of the automatic soil breathing chamber 30 is expandable and compatible with other brands of analyzers.

[0072] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 As shown, the device body 100 includes a dynamic pressure balancing device 10. The dynamic pressure balancing structure includes an air chamber 10-1, on which a first vent and a second vent are provided. Airflow enters from the first vent or the second vent and exits from the second vent or the first vent after entering the air chamber 10-1. An air vent 10-2 is also provided on the air chamber 10-1. A connecting pipe 10-3 is installed on the air vent 10-2. One end of the connecting pipe 10-3 is connected to the air chamber 10-1 through the air vent 10-2, and the other end of the connecting pipe 10-2 is connected to the pressure balancing hollow guide shaft 10-4.

[0073] It should be noted that the cross-sectional area of ​​the first vent is S1, the cross-sectional area of ​​the second vent is S2, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the air chamber cavity at the vent is S3. The ratio of S1 to S3 ranges from 0.1 to 0.4, and the ratio of S2 to S3 ranges from 0.1 to 0.4.

[0074] By setting up air chamber 10-1 and first and second ventilation openings, and opening ventilation ports, the cross-sectional area of ​​the air chamber at the ventilation port is 2.5 to 10 times the cross-sectional area of ​​the first and second ventilation openings. According to Bernoulli's equation and the law of conservation of mass, under wind conditions, the pressure on the soil surface inside the breathing chamber can be the same as the pressure on the soil surface outside the chamber, thereby simulating the dynamic pressure change caused by natural wind.

[0075] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 5As shown, the device body 100 includes a cabin 20, which includes: a main control board 20-1, a micro gas circulation pump 20-2, a lithium battery 20-3, a two-position five-way solenoid valve 20-4, a main air pump 20-5, a cylinder driver 20-6, a soil temperature connector 20-7, a soil moisture connector 20-8, an air inlet 20-9, an air outlet 20-10, an external power supply 20-11, and an ON / OFF switch.

Parameters can be directly input on the tablet computer 200. The WiFi wireless communication on the main control board 20-1 receives the signal. The main control board 20-1 controls the main air pump 20-5 to draw air, and simultaneously, the solenoid valve 20-4 operates, driving the cylinder in the cylinder actuator 20-6 to perform lifting and lowering movements.

[0078] Furthermore, such as Figure 8 As shown, the automatic soil breathing chamber 30 includes: a breathing chamber 30-1, an inlet hollow guide shaft 30-2, an outlet hollow guide shaft 30-3, and an air temperature measuring hollow guide shaft 30-4. The inlet hollow guide shaft 30-2, outlet hollow guide shaft 30-3, air temperature measuring hollow guide shaft 30-4, and pressure balancing hollow guide shaft 10-4 are fixed inside the breathing chamber 30-1. The cylinder in the cylinder actuator 20-6 is connected to and fixed to the breathing chamber 30-1. When the cylinder moves up and down, it drives the automatic soil breathing chamber to move up and down synchronously, automatically and repeatedly, with no limit or a limited number of repetitions.

[0079] Furthermore, such as Figure 8 As shown, the dynamic soil respiration chamber 30 also includes: an adjustable light source 30-5 and a light intensity sensor 30-7 installed inside the chamber. The light intensity and different light ratios of the adjustable light source 30-5 can be adjusted, and the light intensity sensor 30-7 is used to track and monitor the light intensity inside the respiration chamber. The adjustable light source 30-5 is located at the top of the respiration chamber, and an isolation cover 30-6 is installed below the adjustable light source 30-5. The external LED light source 30-8 installed in the respiration chamber is a beacon-like indicative light source used for positioning the soil respiration measurement device.

[0080] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the isolation cover 30-6 is used to mix the light intensity, and it can be made of glass or acrylic material with high transmittance.

[0081] Furthermore, the adjustable light source 30-5 is a red and blue LED cold light source, and the red light intensity range of the adjustable light source 30-5 is 0 μmol / m². 2 / s~2000μmol / m 2 / s, adjustable light source 30-5 blue light intensity range 0μmol / m 2 / s~500μmol / m 2 / s.

[0082] According to the above scheme, further, the adjustable light source 30-5 in this embodiment of the invention is a red-green-blue-white LED cold light source, and the red light intensity range of the adjustable light source 30-5 is 0 μmol / m². 2 / s~2400μmol / m 2 / s, adjustable light source 30-5 green light intensity range 0μmol / m 2 / s~1000μmol / m 2 / s, adjustable light source 30-5 blue light intensity range 0μmol / m 2 / s~2000μmol / m 2 / s, adjustable light source 30-5 white light intensity range 0μmol / m 2 / s~1500μmol / m 2 / s.

[0083] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the adjustable light source 30-5 can be a planar LED light source, such as... Figure 4 As shown, other shapes are also possible, but no specific limitations are made here.

[0084] In this embodiment, the isolation cover 30-6 positioned below the adjustable light source 30-5 enhances the uniformity of light, isolates the adjustable light source from the air passage and sensor probe within the breathing chamber, and provides excellent sealing to prevent moisture and insects from affecting the adjustable light source. Additionally, the built-in light intensity sensor 30-7 is located approximately 1 cm below the isolation cover 30-6.

[0085] In this embodiment of the invention, the adjustable light source is a cold light source, which can track changes in external light intensity and adjust the changes in light inside the respiratory chamber. It can also set the light intensity for corresponding time points according to different seasons, longitudes, and latitudes to perform photosynthetic measurements of lit communities. Because it is a cold light source, the warming effect is eliminated. Specifically, the user can customize the pattern of light intensity change over time within the leaf chamber, which can be a fixed intensity and ratio.

[0086] In this embodiment of the invention, the respiration chamber of the soil respiration measurement device is equipped with a light source whose intensity and proportion can be artificially adjusted, resulting in a highly homogeneous light field on the leaves. In this embodiment, the adjustable light source is primarily a cold light source. Based on the needs of plant growth, while maintaining a constant total number of photons required for effective photosynthesis, an LED artificial light source with an adjustable red-blue photon ratio can be used to provide 0 μmol / m³ of light. 2 / s~2000μmol / m 2 The system provides illumination with a light intensity of / s, featuring typical peak values ​​and spectral widths for blue, red, and far-red LEDs. The built-in light intensity sensor allows for setting the blue light channel (450±15)nm, the red light channel (660±20)nm, and the far-red light channel (735±20)nm to measure the quantum flux density of blue, red, and far-red light respectively, providing real-time feedback for controlling the illumination of the leaf chamber. The red light intensity range is 0 μmol / m². 2 / s~2000μmol / m 2 / s and blue light (light intensity range 0 μmol / m 2 / s~500μmol / m 2 The light source (red light) can be individually controlled. Red light is the energy source, while blue light adjusts the movement of the pores. By adjusting the current value of different light sources, the ratio of red to blue light can be adjusted within a certain range, ensuring stable light radiation per unit area. Alternatively, red, green, blue, and white light sources can be used, providing red, green, blue, and white light (with maximum light intensities reaching 2400, 1000, 2000, and 1500 μmol / m², respectively). 2 The light field of the light source is highly homogeneous due to the arbitrary mixing of light sources in proportions of / s.

[0087] Plant growth typically requires a basic number of photons per unit area for effective photosynthesis, and the required ratio of red to blue light intensity varies at different growth stages. The light source design system mainly consists of a light intensity sensor, an adjustable light source, a controller, and control circuitry, with integrated control software within the controller. Based on requirements, target PPFD values ​​for different wavelength bands (or a total target PPFD value and light quality ratio) are set in the control software. The light intensity sensor, placed in the working area, transmits the measured PPFD values ​​for the corresponding wavelength bands to the controller. The controller compares the target value and the measured value; if they are not equal, it automatically adjusts the PPFD of the corresponding wavelength band until the measured value equals the target value. In this embodiment, the light intensity sensor provides accurate and continuous measurements both indoors and outdoors, offering excellent directional (cosine) response for continuous outdoor or indoor installation or portable field use, and is easy to clean. Leveling is easily achieved by adjusting the screws on the fixed flange using a bubble level. The sensor comes with a 5-meter cable, with a 15-meter cable optional. An amplifier is included, providing a standard Adcon analog output signal from 0 to 2.5V. The sensor has a spectral range of 400 nm to 700 nm and a sensitivity of 10 μmol / m. 2 / s~50μmol / m 2 / s, resistance value 240Ω, signal output range (0-3000μmol / m) 2 / s) is 0~30mV / 0-2.5V.

[0088] Furthermore, the measurement process of the soil respiration measurement system involves first turning on the adjustable light source to perform a measurement under light, and then turning off the adjustable light source to perform a measurement under darkness. It should be noted that a complete soil respiration measurement process in this embodiment of the invention has strict sequential requirements; the measurement under light must be performed first, followed by the measurement under darkness. If the measurement under darkness is performed first, the subsequent measurement under light will be inaccurate.

[0089] The soil respiration measurement system of this invention first turns on the adjustable light source to perform a photoluminescent community photosynthesis measurement; then turns off the light source and performs a photoluminescent community photosynthesis measurement, which is similar to traditional dark soil respiration. The measurement results can well represent the net respiration rate of soil and plants in a real ecosystem.

[0090] The above description, in conjunction with specific preferred embodiments, provides a further detailed explanation of the present invention. It should not be construed that the specific implementation of the present invention is limited to these descriptions. For those skilled in the art, various simple deductions or substitutions can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, and all such modifications and substitutions should be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
